Festival Food & Gift Fair – 11th & 12th May

Whether you’re looking for locally sourced food, a special gift or unique craft decorations for your home, you’ll be spoiled for choice. Dorchester Food & Gift Fair makes a perfect day out for all the family.

We are open Saturday 11th May 10am-5pm & Sunday 12th May 12noon-5pm

This event, set in the stunning location of the Abbey cloister garden, will include all our popular exhibitors in huge marquee and a street food and refreshments area – the perfect place to sit down for a rest and enjoy a coffee or lunch.  We even have an outside stage with live bands to keep you entertained for the whole day!

We encourage a £1 donation on entry to the exhibitor tent to shop at the amazing stalls.

Why not make a day of it and go to a cookery demonstration or two held in beautiful Dorchester house kitchens just a short walk from the Abbey.  Finish off with a good street food lunch and a bit of foodie shopping – perfect!
